In any type of economic situation a well run company will always look for ways to maintain their assests and shed their liabilities. To become an asset I would say to these salespeople; do what is expected of you and wherever possible, try to make someone else's job easier.

But one thing which was missed, atleast not emphasized is, working as a team. Making team to work with everyone. Leader has a great role to play here, as he needs to integrate the team and make each person to be part of a team. Either Welsh or Brown did not mention how did they do it, in this article and I will be all ears to it. Work hard, overdeliver and make team to enjoy the team work. It will be fantastic if welsh or brown can pour more on to the last part of the statement. All the advice was great and relevant for all industries and all times.

When I was early in my career, my mentor also suggested to not make it a habit to leave the office each day before my boss. Impressions and perceptions are everything! These are great points!

It's very challenging when your direct reports don't walk the talk... I had a boss who never wanted to give credit to anyone but herself AND was intolerant of "issues", medical, family, etc...one day it will all catch up and associate relations in HR will need call her on her management style.
